Save Darfur Coalition

The Save Darfur Coalition's “mission is to raise public awareness about the ongoing genocide in Darfur and to mobilize a unified response to the atrocities that threaten the lives of two million people in the Darfur region.

“We are an alliance of over 170 faith-based, advocacy and humanitarian organizations. The Coalition’s member organizations represent 130 million people of all ages, races, religions and political affiliations united together to help the people of Darfur.”

Cofounded by the Holocaust Museum. 

They helped launch the Million Voices for Darfur Campaign.
